Kovalchuk All-Star Vinyl

The 2008 NHL All Star Game Special Edition All-Star Vinyl figure will be Atlanta Thrashers assistant captain - Ilya Kovalchuk. The special edition vinyl will limited to a run of 250 pieces and drop on for Platinum Club members on January 23rd at 9:17AM PST and the same time on January 24th for the general public.

The one issue I have with the NHL figures is that most people have absolutely no idea what these players look like. They don't get the same face time as other sports stars.
